Furious Forebear is a three-mana 3/3 that gains double strike the turn you attack with it, making it a legitimate threat if it connects even once. The setup cost is real — it needs a full attack step to activate — but the payoff justifies the slot in any deck that wants efficient, self-enabling combat pressure.

In Commander, Furious Forebear earns its spot in any deck that wants a low-cost double-strike attacker without paying the premium on enchantments like Fireshrieker — it pairs cleanly with Equipment, aura voltron plans, and any commander that cares about combat triggers. Across competitive constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer, it doesn't clear the bar; three mana for a 3/3 that needs a full attack to come online is too slow when cleaner threats exist at the same cost. Standard is the one non-Commander format where Furious Forebear could see fringe play if aggressive red or creature-based midrange decks need an evasion-adjacent threat on curve.

Price Context
Current price
$0.10 bulk tier
At $0.10, Furious Forebear is deep bulk — you're paying for cardboard and postage, not the card. That price is stable by default; there's no demand spike waiting for a card at this power level, so pick it up whenever you need it without any urgency.
